Tour de Cure

The Seattle Tour de Cure is our signature fundraising cycling event starting and finishing at the beautiful Chateau Ste. Michelle. The Tour is a ride, not a race, with routes designed for everyone from the occasional rider to the experienced cyclist. Whether you ride 10 miles or 100 miles, you will travel a route supported from start to finish with rest stops, food to fuel the journey and fans to cheer you on! This event is marked by gorgeous scenery and a festive atmosphere for the whole family! Grab your bike and register today.

Father of the Year

Through an unique partnership with the Father's Day Council, the Father of the Year Award recognizes men that have made family a priority, while balancing a demanding career and community involvement. The more than $35 million that has been raised to date from Father of the Year Events will help the American Diabetes Association fund essential research, education and advocacy. Learn more at the Father of the Year website.

Congratulations to 2014 Seattle Father of the Year award winners Dan Dixon and Nate Miles, as well as Willie Austin Award winner Pastor Terrence Proctor. We appreciate everyone that came out to the event on June 4, to support this year's honorees!
